IN-EAST and the Käte Hamburger Kolleg / Centre for Global Cooperation Research (KHK/GCR21), jointly offer fellowships in 2016/2017. Application deadline: June 12, 2016
The Institute of East-Asian Studies (IN-EAST) and
the Käte Hamburger Kolleg / Centre for Global
Cooperation Research (KHK/GCR21), both research
institutes at the University of Duisburg-Essen,
jointly offer up to four six-month fellowships
in 2016/2017. The common theme for the
collaboration of both host institutions and for the
fellowships is “Trans-border Cooperation in East
Asia at the Regional/Global Interface”. We are
especially interested in studies that link up
questions of governance and cooperation on global
and regional issues with existing or emerging and
innovative patterns of organizational/institutional
design in East Asia.
In this vein, we welcome theoretical as well as
empirical contributions from the Social Sciences
(Sociology and Political Science, Economics,
Business, Law and Psychology) or the Humanities.
Projects might address one or several of the
following topics:
At the Institute of East Asian Studies, more than
70 scholars from various academic disciplines are
engaged in both research and teaching on
contemporary East Asia, focusing on the economies,
politics and societies of China, Korea and Japan.
Research is carried out by the DFG-sponsored
Research Training Group 'Risk and East Asia', the
BMBF-funded IN-EAST School of Advanced Studies, the
latter focusing on Innovation in East Asia, and many
individual research projects. The IN-EAST
establishes a new research focus on transnational
studies (Further information: http://www.in-east.de).
The Käte Hamburger Kolleg / Centre for Global
Cooperation Research is a research institute
sponsored by the German Federal Ministry of
Education and Research. It seeks to contribute
towards a better understanding of the possibilities
and limits of transboundary cooperation. By building
a learning community, researchers from different
disciplines and world regions develop an innovative
framework for contemporary cooperation research that
enables the exploration of new options for global
public policy (Further information: http://www.gcr21.org).
Both institutions are pleased to announce their
Joint Call for Applications for fellowships in 2016
and 2017. The earliest start date possible is
October 2016. Fellows, who are required to have a
completed Ph.D., will join the Centre or the
Institute for a period of six months. Fellowships
include a working space in fully equipped offices at
one of the two host institutions and, if applicable,
a competitive stipend commensurate with the
applicant’s level of professional experience.
Fellows are expected to contribute to our overall
lines of research and to embrace our
multi-disciplinary environment. Regular attendance
at the Institute and the Centre is thus required,
implying residency in Duisburg or the Rhine-Ruhr
area in most cases. The working language at both
institutions is English.
Applications (in English only) must include a cover
letter, your CV with publication list, a concise
research proposal (3–5 pages) plus one relevant
publication. Please indicate your preferred period
of stay. Please submit your application only
electronically using our website.
The online application form will be available from 1st May 2016: http://www.gcr21.org/index.php?id=355.
The application deadline is 12th June 2016.
We particularly encourage female researchers to
apply.
